Voices

Another new initative from JISC TechDis, has been the launch of the voices Jack and Jess. These are high quality modern voices that that can be used with text to speech tools.

You will need to register with JISC TechDis, once you have registered you will able to download the voices ready for you use. These can be used with programs like DSpeech. The voices can be installed on your pc or laptop, ready to use to listen to emails, word documents or simply click on the play button to listen to the document.

Text-to-speech can also be very helpful to learners working in a second language who may be more confident with spoken rather than written English.
